Grand Rounds Recap 5.1.24

Join us as we recap another excellent week of Grand Rounds. We start with the final installment of our leadership curriculum, where Drs. Hill and LaFollette guide us through the dreaded task of self-promotion. We join Dr. Stark on a moment of self-reflection and growth following a particularly difficult patient case. We are transported into the SRU as Dr. Wright presents the evidence for how we should approach traumatic cardiac arrests in the resus bay. Dr. Adan shares his airway expertise and provides helpful tips/tricks for overcoming the feared anterior airway. Lastly, our colleagues from pharmacy drop by to discuss some relevant updates- including reasons why you should think twice before ordering a urine culture in the ED.

Grand Rounds Recap 11.29.23

This week’s grand rounds was packed with education! We started off the day with our morbidity and mortality conference which was led by chief resident, Dr. Stark. She discussed multiple high yield cases including immunosuppressed patients with fever, subarachnoid hemorrhage, complex trauma resuscitations, stridor in the adult, posterior circulation stroke, and finally an interesting case of Lemierre syndrome. Following M&M, Dr. Wolski took on Dr. Broadstock in an epic clinical pathologic case where the ultimate diagnosis in a child with abdominal pain was a bezoar. This was then followed by Dr. Newton’s R1 Diagnostic and Therapeutics lecture on Troubleshooting tubes in the ED including G-tubes, foley catheters, and suprapubic catheters. Finally, we wrapped up the day with R3 small group sessions. Dr. Harward led a session on ***. Meanwhile, Dr. Moulds discussed pharmacotherapy. Last but certainly not least, Dr. Sobocinski reviewed ***. All around, an excellent day at UCEM Grand Rounds!
